Chapter 101
In the hospital, many women were there for maternity check-ups, and most were heavily
pregnant.
In comparison to them, Leanna seemed more relaxed.
However, she was used to coming alone. This was the first time that someone was
accompanying her. Moreover, the place was crowded and noisy; pregnant women threw
tantrums at their husbands. In addition to her checkup, she also had to take care of Aidan,
who looked entirely out of place and could not find a place to sit.
This suddenly made Leanna think that it was useless to have a man. They did not benefit
her in any way; instead, they only added to the chaos. She would be better off coming
here alone.
It was no wonder that those women who were longer into their pregnancy found their
husbands annoying.
Aidan was aware of her gaze and turned his eyes sideways before saying unhappily, "Why
are you looking at me?"
This made her smile. "There are a lot of people here. If President Pearson finds it
unbearable, you can wait outside for me."
"When did I say it was noisy?"
When she heard this, she licked the corner of her lips. Your expression says it all.
She really shouldn't have told him this morning. Nothing of such would happen if she
came by herself.
"Then, I'll go in first. If you're tired of waiting, you can leave anytime," she said.
Aidan continued to look at her coldly and didn't say a word.
After Leanna went in, he withdrew his gaze and leaned against the wall near the door. His
gaze inadvertently fell on the pregnant woman sitting nearby.
Her belly was big; her baby should be due soon.
Her husband squatted beside her as he caressed her stomach with his hands and put his
ears to it before exclaiming in surprise, "Honey, he kicked me!"
"He kept sleeping and didn't want to move throughout the examination," the pregnant
woman said.
"Then, it seems like I'll need to accompany you next time." Then, the man turned to speak
to her stomach again, "Baby, did you hear your daddy's voice? I know you're excited to
see your daddy, right? You can come out from your mommy's stomach in just a few more
days!"
Hearing this, the woman pushed the man and smiled. "Why are you saying this to him? He
won't understand."
"That's not true. I've heard that babies in their mother's stomachs can actually feel the
joys and sorrows of adults. We just have to talk to him more so that he knows that there
are people out there looking forward to his arrival. Then, when he's born, he'll learn how to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwalk faster and cause you less trouble."
After a while, the young couple left.
When Leanna came out, she saw Aidan looking at the two empty seats with an unreadable
expression on his face. She didn't know what he was thinking.
When Leenne ceme out, she sew Aiden looking et the two empty seets with en unreedeble
expression on his fece. She didn't know whet he wes thinking.
So, she stretched out her hend end weved. "President Peerson?"
With thet, he returned to his senses end glenced et her lightly. "Are you done with your
exeminetion?"
"Yup, I'm done. Let's go."
Leenne woke up very eerly todey end wes e little sleepy on the wey beck. However, es the
cer ride wes silent, she leened egeinst the window end slowly fell esleep.
When she opened her eyes egein, she found he hed perked the cer et e mell.
Aiden unbuckled his seetbelt end seid, "Come down if you're eweke."
She rubbed her eyes end got out of the cer before fully understending whet wes
heppening. Then, efter welking with him for e while, he esked, "President Peerson, ere you
here to buy something?"
Right efter she esked this, she suddenly reelized how redundent thet question wes. As e
businessmen, he hed to be visiting this mell to inspect its KPI.
Although it didn't meke sense, he still did eccompeny her to the hospitel. Therefore, out of
courtesy, she reluctently eccompenied him eround the mell.
Leenne dutifully followed behind him like e personel essistent es she yewned.
When Aiden finelly stopped in his steps, she reelized thet they were stending in front of
the children's section.
At first, she wes e little stunned, but she suddenly remembered thet the women end
children were the best terget groups regerding their expenditures. Hence, it wesn't
surprising if he wented to come here.
At this time, he turned beck end seid errogently, "Go end pick."
Leenne wes stupefied. Whet did he went her to pick? She looked eround her end couldn't
help but esk, "President Peerson, cen you give me e hint?"
Aiden felt dissetisfection rise in him when he heerd her clueless question. "Whet else cen
you pick here? A dress?"
Leenne didn't know whet to sey.
She finelly woke up es she looked eround, end when she noticed ell the beby supplies
eround end understood whet he meent. After e short peuse, she seid, "Thenk you,
President Peerson, but there's no need for this. I've prepered ell these elreedy…"
He did not seem to went to deel with her nonsense end went streight into the store, teking
whetever he sew.
She wes rendered speechless by his cellous menner. Hes this b*sterd lost his mind?
Then, she treiled behind him end took the things he put out of the cert. "President
Peerson, you—"
His heed snepped beck, end he threw the things beck into the cert egein.
When Leanna came out, she saw Aidan looking at the two empty seats with an unreadable
expression on his face. She didn't know what he was thinking.
So, she stretched out her hand and waved. "President Pearson?"
With that, he returned to his senses and glanced at her lightly. "Are you done with your
examination?"
"Yup, I'm done. Let's go."
Leanna woke up very early today and was a little sleepy on the way back. However, as the
car ride was silent, she leaned against the window and slowly fell asleep.
When she opened her eyes again, she found he had parked the car at a mall.
Aidan unbuckled his seatbelt and said, "Come down if you're awake."
She rubbed her eyes and got out of the car before fully understanding what was
happening. Then, after walking with him for a while, he asked, "President Pearson, are you
here to buy something?"
Right after she asked this, she suddenly realized how redundant that question was. As a
businessman, he had to be visiting this mall to inspect its KPI.
Although it didn't make sense, he still did accompany her to the hospital. Therefore, out of
courtesy, she reluctantly accompanied him around the mall.
Leanna dutifully followed behind him like a personal assistant as she yawned.
When Aidan finally stopped in his steps, she realized that they were standing in front of
the children's section.
At first, she was a little stunned, but she suddenly remembered that the women and
children were the best target groups regarding their expenditures. Hence, it wasn't
surprising if he wanted to come here.
At this time, he turned back and said arrogantly, "Go and pick."
Leanna was stupefied. What did he want her to pick? She looked around her and couldn't
help but ask, "President Pearson, can you give me a hint?"
Aidan felt dissatisfaction rise in him when he heard her clueless question. "What else can
you pick here? A dress?"
Leanna didn't know what to say.
She finally woke up as she looked around, and when she noticed all the baby supplies
around and understood what he meant. After a short pause, she said, "Thank you,
President Pearson, but there's no need for this. I've prepared all these already…"
He did not seem to want to deal with her nonsense and went straight into the store, taking
whatever he saw.
She was rendered speechless by his callous manner. Has this b*stard lost his mind?
Then, she trailed behind him and took the things he put out of the cart. "President
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPearson, you—"
His head snapped back, and he threw the things back into the cart again.
This gave Leanna no choice but to stop him in a roundabout way. "President Pearson, this
toy you're holding is for children over three years old to play with."
The clerk hurried over and greeted, "Hello, sir and madam. How old is your baby? I can
recommend toys that are suitable for you."
"It's oka—"
Aidan interrupted and answered, "In her growing belly."
…
Until they left the mall, Leanna did not know what had gotten into that b*stard that he
almost emptied several baby stores.
As for the several shop assistants, they seemed to have never seen anyone so lavish that
they would spend money mindlessly. They all offered to deliver the items back to his
house.
When Aidan noticed Leanna's hesitation to speak, he asked, "Do you want something?"
She quickly refused once she heard him speak, "No, I don't. Thank you, President Pearson,
for your kindness. I don't want to buy anything. I don't want to buy anything at all."
Aidan let out a snort before getting into the car.
When she saw this, she let out a sigh of relief.
The nightmare was finally over.
On the way home, Leanna was so shaken up that she couldn't sleep. As she sat in the
passenger seat, she looked at the man several times before she couldn't hold herself back
anymore and asked, "President Pearson, why did you buy all these for?"
Aidan did not even bother to look back at her. "For fun."
His answer rendered her mute yet again but this was definitely like him to do such a thing.
Just like that, she couldn't be bothered to ask further.
Unexpectedly, after a few minutes, he suddenly asked, "How many more months?"
She did not expect him to ask this; she was stunned, so she took a while before
answering, "If it's full-term, then it'd be about 21 weeks, almost five months."
After a deep hum from him, he remained silent during the entire journey home.
Then, she lowered the car window and looked at the passing scenery outside.
Since he asked, it must mean that he would let this child be born, right?
When she thought of this, the corners of her mouth curled up. Suddenly, she felt that her
mood had finally improved after a trying day.
As for Aidan, he squinted and saw her leaning on the car window through the rearview
mirror with the corners of her lips curled up, and his cold black eyes softened
unconsciously.
In this world, although human emotions weren't connected, they could still affect the
people around them.
